This thread is definitely amusing, if nothing else. Me? I’m militantly unsurprised that gonzo is this clueless AND stupid. My surprise is that the OP actually thought so highly of gonzo as to be disappointed in him and his obviously cluelessness.
I’m also unsurprised that gonzo seems truly perplexed by all this. The guy is barely literate after all and has the IQ of something approximately equal to pocket lint…if he wasn’t so abrasive and belligerent I’d almost feel sorry for him and see about getting him a poodle of his own…
See, I don’t understand this attitude. Do you feel that you’re missing out on something because you can’t call a gay man a fag or faggot? Do you feel you’re missing out on something because you can’t call a black man a nigger? I don’t use “fag” myself…it feels “icky” to do so. But the fact that some gay men do call each other fags in various usages…is this taking something away from you?
Yes. Yes, it is not proper for a straight man to use the word, even if gay men do. That’s the nature of the word. Deal with it.
And “in some circles” is not universal. There are as many gay subcultures as there are straight subcultures, possibly more. Every major city has at least one based on location alone. Every little subgroup, sexual kink, body type attraction, performance preference and sometimes race has their own. Some use “fag” or “faggot”. Some don’t. Neither type is subject to your judgment.
Okay, okay! I probably shouldn’t have been surprised. I think my message-board (purely platonic!) affection for LOUNE spilled over to gonzomax and I’ve never re-evaluated that.
LOUNE is actually quite engaging, especially in some of the other forums. Der Trihs is engaging in just about any forum except GD (and even there sometimes, depending on the topic). Both of them can at least write a coherent sentence. gonzo however is just pathetic. I actually feel sorry for him occasionally…like in the Nuclear debate when just about everyone ignores his drive by links (he still hasn’t figured out how to insert a link with a description instead of the URL, and still hasn’t figured out how to cut and paste quotes from his drive by links yet…but given another few years I’m sure it will come to him).
Well, I did give myself some wiggle room there by saying his intelligence is ‘approximately equal to pocket lint’. Also, fortunately, defenders of pocket lint don’t seem to be in profusion either here on the SD or in the general population, so I figured I’d be able to get away with such an insult just this once…
You would be a complete idiot to not be able to see the rest of the story. Gay has evolved into a completely different connotation.
What are you XTs lap dog?
You do realize that we all can read what’s in the link, right? I know, I know…you don’t actually expect anyone to click on your drive by links…but just this once I figured, what the hell.
You didn’t actually use the word ‘gay’ though…and you certainly didn’t seem to mean it in a non-derisive manner that didn’t have connotations of homo-sexuality.
Looking up the term you DID use on Wiki, we see that faggot (Note…this is how you link to a web site and actually use a descriptive term instead of a URL):
Unless you meant the dogs looked like either a cigarette or a bundle of sticks of course…
ETA: Just to recap, here is what you ACTUALLY said:
